Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatment widely used in aesthetic medicine for skin rejuvenation and hair restoration. At The Glo Bar, we offer safe and effective PRP therapy in Ruislip, performed by qualified professionals in a strictly clinical environment. This regenerative treatment harnesses the body’s own healing factors to promote collagen production, improve skin tone and texture, and stimulate natural hair growth.
PRP therapy is ideal for individuals looking for a natural, non-surgical method to address concerns such as facial ageing, scarring, or hair thinning. With substantial clinical backing and proven results, PRP is a trusted solution for those seeking visible improvements without synthetic substances or invasive procedures.
What is PRP Therapy?
PRP therapy involves extracting a small amount of the patient’s blood, processing it in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets, and then re-injecting the platelet-rich plasma into targeted areas of the skin or scalp. Platelets contain growth factors that stimulate tissue regeneration, enhance collagen synthesis, and accelerate healing.
This therapy is commonly used for:
- Facial rejuvenation (also known as the “vampire facial”)
- Hair restoration for men and women experiencing thinning
- Scar improvement from acne or trauma
- Skin tightening and texture refinement
Clinical Research & Efficacy
PRP is supported by robust medical research and is widely accepted in both dermatology and regenerative medicine.
- A 2019 study published in the Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Journal reported a significant reduction in fine lines, improved skin elasticity, and dermal thickness after 3 PRP sessions spaced 4 weeks apart.
- In the field of trichology (the science of hair), a 2020 study in Dermatologic Surgery concluded that PRP therapy resulted in a 30% to 40% increase in hair density for patients with androgenic alopecia.
- Research from The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology confirmed PRP’s efficacy in improving skin texture and reducing post-acne scarring, especially when combined with microneedling.

Key Advantages of PRP at The Glo Bar:
1. Expert Medical Practitioners
All PRP treatments are administered by qualified professionals trained in aesthetic and regenerative medicine. We follow strict protocols in blood collection, processing, and injection.
2. Sterile, Clinical Setting
Our Ruislip clinic adheres to high medical and hygiene standards. Each procedure is conducted in a private, sterile environment using single-use tools and FDA-cleared centrifuges.
3. Personalised Treatment Plans
Every client receives a detailed consultation. We assess your skin or scalp condition and recommend a tailored PRP regimen, often combined with microneedling, laser therapy, or skin boosters for enhanced results.
4. Safe and Natural
PRP is 100% autologous, meaning it uses your own blood—eliminating any risk of allergic reaction or cross-contamination. It is ideal for clients seeking natural, sustainable rejuvenation without artificial substances.
5. Long-Term Regenerative Benefits
Unlike cosmetic fillers or topical treatments, PRP promotes gradual, biological improvement in the skin or hair follicles. Results develop over weeks and continue to improve with repeated sessions.
PRP for Skin Rejuvenation
When injected into facial tissue, PRP helps restore volume, reduce fine lines, and improve skin firmness. It is often used to treat:
- Tear troughs (under-eye hollowness)
- Nasolabial folds
- Cheeks and jawline
- Acne scars
- Dull, sagging, or ageing skin
The procedure may be combined with microneedling for increased absorption and collagen stimulation. The skin typically appears fresher and smoother within 2–3 weeks, with further improvements over 2–3 months.
PRP for Hair Restoration
PRP is particularly effective for individuals experiencing early to moderate hair thinning, especially in cases of:
- Androgenic alopecia (male and female pattern baldness)
- Postpartum hair loss
- General thinning due to stress or hormonal changes
PRP is injected directly into the scalp at the level of the hair follicles to stimulate new growth, extend the hair growth cycle, and reduce hair fall. Most clients see visible improvements in 3–6 sessions spaced one month apart, with peak results occurring after 6–9 months.
What to Expect During and After PRP Therapy
Treatment Process:
- Consultation & medical history review
- Blood draw (typically 10–20 ml)
- Centrifugation to isolate the platelet-rich plasma
- Topical numbing (for skin treatments)
- Precise injections into the skin or scalp using micro-needles
Aftercare:
- Minimal downtime; most clients return to daily activities within 24 hours
- Temporary redness or swelling may occur
- Avoid strenuous activity and sun exposure for 48 hours
- Follow-up sessions recommended for cumulative benefit
Who Is a Suitable Candidate for PRP Therapy?
PRP therapy is generally safe for most adults in good health. It is particularly beneficial for those who:
- Seek natural rejuvenation without surgery or foreign substances
- Want to improve skin texture, firmness, or scarring
- Are in early stages of hair thinning or shedding
- Wish to combine PRP with other aesthetic treatments for enhanced results
However, clients with blood disorders, active infections, or certain autoimmune diseases may not be suitable. A medical consultation is essential prior to treatment.
